Abstract

See full text

The present invention is directed to the synchronous control of a parallel interface. In particular, the present invention provides an interface between a serial communication link and parallel communication channels within an adapter that operate synchronously, and without requiring a data buffer. A data buffer may be provided between the parallel data channels of the adapter that operate synchronously with the serial data channel, and the adapter's host interface. The present application reduces the amount of memory that must be provided by the adapter, and eliminates delays caused by the provision of additional data buffers.
